Pretty awesome earphones. I wear earphones for hours a day on most days. I listen to podcasts or YouTube videos almost exclusively. I have bought at least a dozen pairs of various quality and until I went ahead and paid the premium for these my favorites were the Beats Powerbeats over the ear style because of their super secure fit and decent sound. I had worn Apple head phones that came with my phone (or tried to) and they simply would not fit at all. I was afraid these wouldn’t either but I didn’t realize they had changed to silicone tips. I have had these for a few weeks and they have never fallen out. I walk stairs almost every day and so secure fit is very important. The great features are insertion detection, auto pause on removal, and easy pause with the tactile button. The only caveat is no volume adjustment on the earpiece and no hook to hang on my collar like the Powerbeats have. Operation is great. Sound is excellent. Battery life is not as good as the Powerbeats and nowhere near as good as the cheap Panasonic ones I used to wear while walking. Quality product all around.

Excellent purchase!

I am often wary about "store brand" products and their potential quality, but the need I had for this protector and the price Best Buy offered tipped the scales and I took a chance. I certainly won the bet. I had just bought the latest regular iPad version for my wife and somehow the screen got cracked almost immediately. The device still worked fine and I just worried about the danger of a sliced finger so I hoped the screen protector would eliminate the risk and protect against further damage. The application process includes two little stickers that act as hinges to help position the screen protector when you stick it on and they worked PERFECTLY! I have applied many a screen protector and never had one placed as accurately as this one. Maybe it was luck, but the way to tell about fit is the placement around the thumb button and it was perfect. I placed the protector on and ran my thumb down the middle from top to bottom and the screen just flattened out over the device and sealed just right. I smoothed it out but it never really had bubbles or gaps with the surface except for a second or two at the bottom where the cracked screen was. Once I smoothed over that area it lay down perfectly and has stayed that way since. Great product Insignia!

Very Nice case
on October 17, 2021

Verified Purchase:Yes
Very nice case with a good feel and fit. I try to use ONLY Speck cases for the fact that they hit the sweet spot on fit, function and price. I ordered one for my new 13 pro max but got spooked when an online review held forth that the 12 pro max case wouldn't work (at least not perfectly) with the 13 pro max so I returned it. This was wrong, but it did give me a chance to try a different manufacturer's product and find out that I was right to go with Speck. The other case had a "flat back" that felt wrong in my hand and made me very insecure about how my phone would fare in a drop. I got this Speck case on sale and am back to feeling secure with my da**ed expensive phone. I struggled with giving five stars and decided to go with four because this case is less "grippy" than my previous Speck cases and I miss that. Otherwise fits and functions and gives peace of mind like it should. Thanks

Very Nice protection

I have made this a go to item for ALL the phones I am paying for, mine, my wife's and my two granddaughter's phones. As soon as we got our upgrades, two 13 pro max ones and a 12 mini, we got new screen protectors for those and the old 8 plus. The good thing was the 8 plus was replaced with the lifetime warranty at Best Buy and the 12 mini had two in one box. Actually the ones for the 13s were for 12 pro max versions, but the only difference is the size of the black space at the top so it works perfectly. BTW the 12 pro max phone case fits just fine too. Thanks Armor Edge for a very nice product.

Got this for my granddaughter's new Iphone 12 mini (in purple) and she was quite pleased. I was pleased with the fit and the good looks and the protection it promised to provide. Everything lined up and all the buttons worked and it fit tight and snug. I am well pleased with the price as well.

Our phones~ screens are the windows to our digital world, and we want a seamless experience as we swipe and type on our Apple iPhone 8 Plus, 7 Plus, 6s Plus or 6 Plus. Nothing delivers that experience quite like the ultra-smooth surface of glass. So, we created Glass+ to be able to withstand the rigors of our day-to-day lives and the unexpected.

Nice "fit and finish" for this protective screen. Also has a replacement warranty for when it gets damaged. Got the good folks at Best Buy to slap it on the phone and we were good to go. Peace of mind and an investment.

Make charging your Apple Watch utterly effortless. This solution combines the MagSafe technology with inductive charging. It's a completely sealed system free of exposed contacts. It's very forgiving, requiring no precise alignment. You simply hold the connector near the back of the watch, where magnets cause it to snap into place automatically.

These magnetic connecting chargers work great. My only gripe is the price. The cords are apparently tough because I have been using the one for my Apple Watch 5 for a couple years now with zero issues. Hope the new 7s use the same charger but that doesn't seem likely. I got this charger as an extra in case mine or my wife's goes out and also to take on trips so we don't have to take our regular chargers.

I have used these protectors on 5 different phones so far and they are great. I have had them replaced at Best Buy several times because my wife and granddaughter find a way to break them. I have had one on my iPhone 11 Pro Max for two years with no issues at all. I am getting new ones for our 13s tomorrow.

The anti-glare tempered glass construction supports easy viewing in any lighting, while the fingerprint-resistant surface retains full touch function. A microfiber cleaning cloth and dust-removing sticker make this AE screen protector easy to apply and maintain.

Absolutely worth the money. When I find those rare products that appear to be without equal I tend to break off the knob and not change the dial. I was never a fan of protective covers for my screen because I am fastidious with my devices and wanted to avoid ANY loss of touch sensitivity on the screen, but I HAD to have protection for my wife and granddaughter so... After getting Armor Edge for my wife and applying it I found I didn't have to compromise touch for protection. I have bought them for every phone I am responsible for now and haven't given a second thought to spending the money to protect them.

Speck products are the only protective covers I purchase for my devices. After spending much more on Otter cases and not being as impressed with the experience I shopped around a little and found Speck. I try to find them on the mark-down shelf or in discount stores for stupid cheap because I am not after the new shiny object, just an excellent performing case to protect what is really valuable anyway.

The CM1000 Ultra-High Speed Cable Modem, with speeds up to 1Gbps and DOCSIS 3.1 is 10X faster than DOCSIS 3.0 devices. It's backward compatible with DOCSIS 3.0 and ready for future service plan upgrades for XFINITY from Comcast, Cox, and Spectrum. A Gigabit Ethernet port provides faster access and downloads.
 

If I buy this modem, do I need to buy the router to use the internet?

Yes. There are other devices that are combined modem/router, but this is only a modem and will not service multiple devices. You could plug one computer into this modem with a cord, but no wi-fi and no other devices.

Immerse yourself in stunning game environments with this iBUYPOWER desktop computer. The NVIDIA GeForce RXT 2070 graphics card has 8GB of dedicated video memory for cinematic visuals at high frame rates, and the 1TB SSD ensures sufficient speed and storage. This iBUYPOWER desktop computer has an Intel Core i7 processor and 16GB of RAM for optimal performance.
 

My new pc the BB952 came with 2 antennas and I don’t know where to put it .

These screw onto the card that sticks out of the back of the computer (it is a wireless device that plugs into the motherboard inside) to allow you to connect to your wireless network more easily. These are the wireless network antennas and they just screw in and rotate to the optimum position to receive a signal.

How do you change the lights on the computer?

Go to the ASRock Utility on the Start Menu and select the ASRRGBLED option and it will open a utility that allows you lots of options.

I bought this computer on Christmas and I tried to change the lighting on it using the application, but instead of changing the color it says," Smart lighting not detected." If anyone knows a way to fix this that would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, that is the wrong utility. The MSI Lighting doesn't work. Use the ASRock~ASRRGBLED Utility from your Start Menu and you will be more pleased.

does this model have a way to change lighting?

Yes, it does. The Techs at Best Buy said they used to come with a remote control for lighting, but that wasn't the way it was with mine. Go to the Programs button on your Start Menu and select the ASRock Utility option and open the ASRRGBLED utility and voila! you will be able to select different lighting options. I set mine to cycle through the colors slowly and have liked the effect pretty much. Hope you find this before you give up.
